We’ve found our perfect company car. Built by Divers Street Rods, winner of the 2008 Riddler Award, it’s a 1960 Nash Rambler blended with all the perfect bits of a Ferrari 360. The Divers crew have branded it the Ferrambo—yes, even the name is perfect. Behind the front seats you’ll find an Italian V8 coupled to a 6-speed manual, both pulled form a 2002 Prancing Horse. Full Ferrari suspension supports the wagon on all four corners, and yes, that’s a genuine bespoke luggage set up front. This isn’t some backyard cob job, either. The car is beautifully executed. It’s for sale, so if you’re looking for a worthy cause to drop some serious dough on, just think of us. Sigh. [PistonHeads]

Hey that was my family car you Ferrari-ed. (1960 Rambler American wagon) I learned to drive on it, and have many fond memories riding in the rear (forget about seat belts - there wasn’t even a third row seat) facing backwards. It was also a workhorse for my father when he went into the home improvement business, stacking it so full of 2X4’s I ended up having to sit on the lumber, and loading sheets of plywood on the roof. We rode it till the wheels fell off - no kidding. The ball joints gave way on TWO separate ocassions, causing the front wheel to fall off. Well, we had it fixed twice and kept on driving it. My older sister, a college student, was the last to drive it. I remember her covering it with big daisy stickers (various sizes about 6″ diam.) which was very popular at that time. It went to the junkyard, full of rust, in about 1969. Nice to see one resurected and Ferrari-ed.
